The Underground’s certainly delved into some horrifying food topics in the past (none of which have been American Heart Association Approved), though we remain solidly behind the slaw dog as fly fishing’s premier fuel.
Still, when the Underground’s Crack Team of Internet Surfing Slackers Online Food Operatives stumbled on this, we knew we had to post it.
Finally, a worthy appetizer for the Slaw Dog: The French Fry Coated Bacon On a Stick
Imagine: all the grease of bacon & frenchy fry breakfast, but nothing fouling your fly line when lunch is over? Can industry-wide adoption be far behind?
Are you all abandoning your jobs and opening French Fry Coated Bacon on a Stick street carts?
This, my lovely herd of Undergrounders, is no less than yet another Underground-powered breakthrough in fly fishing’s culinary zeitgeist.
See you in the coronary care unit, Tom Chandler.

YUM!

That’s an amazing delicacy, it’ll go down and come back up effortlessly.
I don’t think chewing is necessary as it’ll only slow your death somewhat.

Wayne: You are correct.
BaconGurl: With a name like that, expect marriage proposals from several of the Undergrounders.
kbarton: What, you wanna live forever?

Hey, I linked to its wikipedia definition in the original article. See, I’m actually working hard to better the minds of my readers.

Goddamn that looks really good.

I think this edges out fried twinkies in the category of creative use of grease.

I don’t know, those fries make it a pretty unappetizing mess, no matter how it might taste. Now, here’s a guy who has artery-clogging down to a fine art, and you can actually go to his cafe and buy the product.

Lou: C’mon — the chicken-friend bacon doesn’t even come on a stick. It’s the meal-on-a-stick aspect that really fires up the frency fry coated bacon food product….

With the chicken-fried bacon, you can just pick it up, dunk it in gravy if you insist, and have at it. Consider it free fly floatant, preloaded on your fingers. You don’t have to worry about grabbing the ****** end of the stick, you’re not as likely to put your eye out with it, and you don’t have to find a place to dispose of the stick. If the stick were so important, you wouldn’t be trying to choke down a slaw dog when you could have a nice, tasty, deep-fried corndog.

It’s great to see this important advance in food science, not to mention unconventional uses of sticks, go nearly viral through the efforts of the Trout Underground!
We at the Chile Undergound continue to push the envelope in this important research effort. For instance, we have now definitively demonstrated that the FFBOS can be deep-fried in retained bacon grease! (Yes, we in the South really DO save our bacon grease, just in case.)
In fact, I’m working heatedly on a monograph tentatively titled “Therapeutic, Cosmetic, Remodeling and Recreational uses of Bacon Grease in the Bedroom.” (I gave up on the lard version; take it from me, bacon grease is better! Or so I’ve heard.) I may even use the bacon grease fried version of the FFBOS on the cover. Somewhere.
Oh, and BaconGurl: You don’t have to hang around the Trout Underground trolling for marriage proposals. The Chile Undergound is at least as effective as this site in that regard, and you’re more likely to hook up with someone who can cook. Or anyways, deep-fry in bacon drippings.
Tom: Ixnay on the mind improvement efforts, okay? Your readers toss faux bug bits at fish just for fun; you’re not likely to have much impact…
Enjoy the Heat! CD

Lou: I can see that the ugly, blog-dividing “stick or no stick” controversy is going to sweep over the Trout Underground, bitterly pitting pro-stick and pro-finger factions against each other.
And I must say that If I was so concerned about putting my eye out, I would neither shoot target pellet guns nor wave an 8.5′ implement that was seemingly custom-designed to put eyes out.
I’m afraid I’m falling firmly in the pro-stick camp. After all, it’s the Underground — a place of lofty ideals and unquestioned integrity where we’re reluctant to lower our junk-food consumption standards even a teency bit.
Chile: We only get women around here once in a while; nor fair trying to steal them.

See, I knew that, what with being a master of the Hegelian dialectict, and all. Problem is, your link didn’t work.
Hey, Bacongurl, have you ever had White Castle hamburgers?
Kentucky Jim(Quote)
Looks like Minnesota State Fair food. Anything on a stick….
KY Jim, why did you have do bring up sliders. Now I’ve got the crave, and the closest White Castle from here is over 200 miles away.

that looks tasty. Man I want some…
